Caprese Panini

• 1 loaf French Bread
• 1/2 cups Pesto
• 4 whole Tomatoes
• 1/2 pounds Mozzarella (from The Deli)
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 15 leaves Basil (depends On Size Of Leaves)
• 13 pounds Deli Turkey, Thinly Sliced (optional)
• 1 Tablespoon Balsamic Vinegar
• 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil

1. Slice the French bread at an angle into slices about 1 inch thick.
2. Cut 8 slices, enough to make 4 sandwiches.
3. Spread pesto generously on one side of each of the slices.
4. Slice the tomatoes thinly.
5. On 4 of the bread slices, layer on mozzarella cheese, then a layer of the sliced tomatoes, then a little dash of salt, and finally the basil leaves so that all ingredients cover the slice of bread as much as possible.
6. Add turkey if you want some extra protein at this point (optional).
7. Take the remaining 4 slices of bread (the ones with just pesto) and lightly sprinkle balsamic onto the pesto.
8. You can use a pastry brush for this, too.
9. Assemble the sandwiches by placing one balsamic/pesto slice of bread on top of the loaded bread.
10. Spread a light layer of olive oil on the top and bottom of each sandwich so it browns nicely in the pan.
11. Cook over warm grill pan on medium head or panini maker.
12. Enjoy!
